The Year of the Snake in the Lunar Calendar is a time of wisdom, introspection, and subtle transformation. Occurring every twelve years, this zodiac sign is associated with intelligence, intuition, and enigmatic charm. Those born in Snake years are thought to possess keen insight and a natural ability to navigate complex situations with grace and cunning.

King Charles III features on the obverse of the 2025 Proof Australian Gold Lunar Snake. This left-profile portrait of Charles III was created by Dan Thorne and is the first-ever bust of His Majesty for Australian coins. Charles III’s portrait appears for the first time in the Lunar Series III collection with the 2025 Year of the Snake release.

Sean Rogers created a reverse design on the 2025 1 oz Proof Gold Lunar Snake that depicts the animal amidst bamboo shoots. In this year’s exclusive gold coin design, the snake is shown coiled around several different shoots of bamboo. This design will also be replicated on platinum coins in the Lunar Series III release.
